Darling,
I write this from afar,
Divided,
By oceans sleeping under stars
Longing,
This fever to subdue,
Hoping,
The words I could not say to you,
Are words youíre reading now
You set my heart alight,
Like a galleon up in flames,
When I hear you call my name,
So Iím
Sailing back to Spain.
You know I come alive,
Achieving scientific fame,
Until I think of you again,
Then Iím sailing,
Sailing back to Spain.
A calling,
Thatís called for me too long,
Dissolving,
In echoes of my countryís songs
You alone should know,
Rationale can take a man so far
One day my dear,
Some day, some year,
Lined up beneath those stars,
Play armadas of guitars
While our hearts keep beating like the castanets.
Captain, set the course for
home.
